History Characters / MassEffect2NormandyCrew

* SexBot:
** Played with. The third game never out-and-out proclaims that EDI's body has sexual functionality, but it implies it quite heavily: she tells Shepard that her chassis is intended as an "infiltration unit", which implies an ability to blend in with its biological surroundings; the robot body is unquestionably [[BuxomBeautyStandard voluptuous]]. Joker is certainly happy about it.

* GeekyTurnOn: At one point, after listening to Gabby spout some TechnoBabble about what she had to alter in response to the ''Normandy'''s armour being upgraded, Ken responds lustfully "I love it when you talk dirty.".
* GirlOnGirlIsHot: Kenneth is a big believer in this. To the eternal annoyance of Gabby. It won't stop her from using it to drive Ken crazy.

* WomenAreWiser: Gabby is shown to be both a more talented engineer and to have a more sensible personality compared to Ken, though the presence of the male but more level-headed Adams in ''3'' balances things out somewhat.

* HeroesWantRedheads: If her romance is pursued.

* AIIsACrapShoot: Actively discussed. Almost every organic aboard the ''Normandy SR-2'' expresses concern that she'll turn out this way, shackles or not. [[spoiler:She fulfills the trope, entirely against her will, if Shepard fails to stop the Overlord in time during ''Overlord''. Otherwise, she remains completely helpful and friendly to Shepard, actively ignoring her '''many''' opportunities to betray them]].

* ThePardon: In''Mass Effect 3'', [[spoiler:if one or both survive the Suicide Mission]], Shepard can use their Spectre authority to grant them full pardons for working with Cerberus and get them reinstated aboard the Normandy SR-2.

* {{Quest Giver}}s: In both games, they ask Shepard to look for a certain mechanical part that will help them.

* ThoseTwoGuys: They're rarely seen apart, [[VitriolicBestBuds like to playfully bicker]] with each other, and are generally heard commenting on the state of affairs on the ship

* AnythingThatMoves: Doesn't care what race/gender her partner is, because "Passion is nice wherever you find it and intimacy brings understanding." [[{{Fanservice}} Uh-huh.]] Fans have had a field day speculating about how the varren-carried STD got on board the ''Normandy''.

* BoobsOfSteel: A literal example once she acquires Dr Eva Core's android body. During a conversation between them, Legion even comments that her body has become "top-heavy".]]

* HelplessKicking: [[spoiler: In the second game, when the Collectors attack the Normandy, she can be seen futilely kicking her legs as she's dragged into an elevator.

** Shepard can show his own and use his Spectre status to not only get them out of Alliance jail but ''re-instate them''.

** Played with. The third game never out-and-out proclaims that EDI's body has sexual functionality, but it implies it quite heavily: she tells Shepard that her chassis is intended as an "infiltration unit", which implies an ability to blend in with its biological surroundings; the robot body is unquestionably [[BuxomIsBetter voluptuous]].

** Legion will note that she'll too "top heavy" to be an effective soldier; she responds her main skills are infiltration.

* SexBot: Played with. The third game never out-and-out proclaims that EDI's body has sexual functionality, but it implies it quite heavily: she tells Shepard that her chassis is intended as an "infiltration unit," which implies an ability to blend in with its biological surroundings; the robot body is unquestionably [[BuxomIsBetter voluptuous]].

* ShesGotLegs: When pressed by Gabby in ''3'', Ken will admit her legs are "spectacular".
-->'''Gabby:''' Well, that's a ''start''.

* AllGirlsWantBadBoys[=/=]SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Depending on how you interact with her as a Male!Shep, she'll admit to one of these two after recruiting Thane.

** Apparently feeling the need to clarify the situation, [=BioWare=] released a DLC costume in ''From Ashes'' which gives EDI +25% shields and an anatomical feature known colloquially as a "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel_toe camel toe]]" (link goes to The Other Wiki but is arguably NSFW). The Alternate Appearance Pack gives her normally-"naked" body something resembling armor that combines a CleavageWindow with AbsoluteCleavage and a massive case of {{Underboobs}}. [[{{Fanservice}} Not that anyone's complaining]].

** UpToEleven in ''Mass Effect 3''. [[spoiler: She can't even step onto the ''Normandy'' anymore without having flashbacks of her abduction and capture. And, if Shepard yells at her when she reveals that she used to spy on them for the Illusive Man, she'll run off in tears and you'll later learn that she killed herself by swallowing a cyanide pill]].

* {{Troll}}: Her method of entertaining herself, and the intent of most of her jokes. Repeatedly provokes Joker because she enjoys watching his reactions. In ''3'', she starts trolling Shepard as well. [[DudeNotFunny S/he is not happy about it]].

* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: Subverted in ''VideoGame/MassEffect2''. EDI states that she and Joker are engaging in a platonic respect and partnership, rather than hormone-driven courtship. Joker is creeped out by the suggestion. [[spoiler:Then played completely straight in ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'', where EDI acknowledges that Joker finds her new body aesthetically pleasing, but that she has no biological drives which allow her to reciprocate. Instead, she's driven by the desire to understand Jeff and make him happy, so she asks Shepard for his/her advice. You can tell her to keep things friendly, or encourage her to the point that she figures out how to love him back on her own]].

And, if Shepard yells at her when she reveals that she used to spy on him/her for the Illusive Man, she'll run off in tears and you'll later learn that she killed herself by swallowing a cyanide pill]].

* UndyingLoyalty: They hooked up with Cerberus because Ken refused to back down in defense of Shepard when the Alliance sold him/her out.

* SchmuckBait: She will warn off a casual sex scene with Jack. However doing so stops her from becoming the utter BastardGirlfriend if a proper romance is pursued.

* BaldOfAwesome: Generally boisterous.

* ImAlive:
** [[spoiler:If she's in your party for the last combat section of the Citadel DLC after the Shepard Clone takes her AI core on the ''Normandy'' offline, EDI's robot body hard-restarts. You can hear the surprised elation in her voice when she comes back online and says "I'm okay!" The other occupants in the car are not completely convinced since her eyes are both askew when she exclaims this]].
** Poignantly, [[spoiler:in the Synthesis ending, she narrates how Shepard's actions have given her and all other synthetics (including the Reapers) full understanding of the organics' perspective. She sums it up with one line: "I am alive, and I am not alone." She even cries as Shepard's name is affixed on the ''Normandy'' memorial wall]].
